Snakebeard Jackson is.your old shoes and worn out hat, your last cigarette and life on the tracks, your hometown, your heros, your happy regrets, your mother, your brother, and still drinkin’ uncle, his empty bottles, your empty bottles, your bottom’s up and your lack of love, giving you hope, loaning you smokes, sharing a bed and stealing the sheets, stealing your food and cleaning the plates, a lot of the truth, most of your lies, keeping the salt from all of your eyes, growing up, being sold, all of the stories you tell when you’re old, the trainwreck the shipwreck and all of the smoke, all of the thoughts you thought were your own.
